Time to Market shortened from 3-6 months, to days, in term of development and runtime deployment.
TIBCO BW has excellent mapping capabilities, that are further enhanced by BW Plugins like SmartMapper.
Testing Integration Flows did pose some challenges, but when we started using CA DevTest (formerly ITKO Lisa), we overcame the complexity and hidden problems very quickly. We are in the process of automating much of this integration testing as a part of CI/CD.
During the RFP period (14 years ago), we pitted TIBCO against Oracle JCAPs (formerly eGate SeeBeyond), IBM WTX DataStage (formerly Mercator), Gentrans, and Microsoft Biztalk.
None was able to fulfill our requirements, except TIBCO, which completed the tasks specified in RFP in less than several days.
